Panabo, Component city in Davao del Norte, Philippines
Located between Davao City and Tagum City along the Pan-Philippine Highway, Panabo extends over 251 square kilometers of coastal and agricultural terrain.
The area transformed from an Aeta settlement to a formal municipality in 1949 through Presidential Proclamation Number 236 signed by President Manuel Roxas.
The name Panabo derives from pana-sa-boboy, referencing the arrows used by indigenous Aeta people who first inhabited this land for hunting.
Transportation to Panabo includes regular public buses from Davao City, with additional connectivity through Davao International Airport located 30 kilometers away.
The Tagum Agricultural Development Company established in Panabo operates the largest Cavendish banana plantation globally, leading to the city's designation as Banana Capital.
